If one has no income and lives off of someone else, should the someone else get the "prebate"? It is guaranteed income, plain and simple. If you were willing to submit to sending in receipts for every purchase and have that rebated up to a determined level, then yea, that is a reasonable rebate, but that is not how the farttaxers want it, they want a BIG, a basic income guarantee, for sure.

Chewck the links in #503, #504, & #505 and you disabuse yourself of the notion that "all those" living below poverty are somehow doing without funds. That's BS as these figure clearly show.
The lowest average annual income levels are $16,500, $20,500 and $20,600 and they go on up from there. to pretend they will pay no tax under the FairTax is nonsebse. They'll pay plenty - $3,795 in tax for the lowest one shown if he's foolish enough to spend everything on taxable items.
